NEW FRIENDS!

Thursday was pretty normal in the day time. It's been nice to kind of take this week to relax and try to lose this cold I have had. But I am just SO excited that all the new kids are finally starting to move in and get ready for school next week, because that means new friends! Me and Elise decided that every Thursday we are going to try to have a game night, and open it up to anyone who wants to come. Last night was our first attempt at it, and it was a HUGE success! Easily the funnest time I have ever had at EA so far! I met a lot of new people. The first thing we played was a mormon drinking game.

Haha let me explain. When we play drinking games, we pick a movie that everyone knows or has seen before. The movie we picked was The Princess Bride. Then you pick a few words/names that are said a lot in the movie. We picked Buttercup, Westley, Hummperdinck, and 'True Love.' Then everyone gets their little plastic shot glasses (I feel like a sinner for explaining this) and picks the drinks they want to use. I just used orange juice and water, but most other people drank Gatorade or soda. Every time one of the selected words is said in the movie you have to take a shot. If you have to get up to use the bathroom or you miss a shot, then you are out of the game. It may not sound very fun or hard but OH MY WORD IT WAS SO DIFFICULT. I thought I would be out after like 20 shots, but I surprised myself and made it through the whole movie! Lela was tallying all the shots because she was too sick to play, and at the end of the movie she said their had been 92 shots throughout the movie. Do you remember the part in the movie where they go to Miracle Max and his wife comes out and yells "HUMPERDINK! Humperdink Humperdink Humperdink" and then just keeps saying it over and over? Everyone was DYING at that part! But laughing just made it harder to keep all the water in haha. I know this probably sounds so stupid but it was so fun.

We played so more games after that, and I think everyone really enjoyed their selves. School starts in 3 days and I am so excited to make even more friends!
